Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized faith-based ministries or churches with an existing relationship or referral to the trustees, preferably operating in Colorado and seeking modest, one-time donations.
Good Fit
- • Is a church or religious ministry aligned with evangelical/faith-based giving patterns.
- • Has an existing personal or organizational connection to the trustees or to current grantees.
- • Is located in Colorado or has an established program presence there.
- • Seeks relatively small, general-support donations rather than large multi-year grants.
- • Has been funded by this foundation in prior years or is referred by a prior grantee.
Geography
Although recipients appear across six states in the latest year, 91% of grant dollars were directed to Colorado recipients, so financial support is heavily concentrated in a single state.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded about 10–11 distinct recipients each year (consistent over three years), indicating a moderate spread of independent grantees, but dollar amounts are highly concentrated among the top five organizations.
New Applicants
The foundation explicitly states it only awards grants to preselected organizations and the latest year showed zero new recipients while all 11 grantees were repeats, which together suggest unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to enter the portfolio without a referral or relationship.
